Alexis Brozdounoff Young
Hello wonderful families! My name is Alexis Brozdounoff/Young (Ms. Young), and I am delighted to be a teacher here at COA. Before teaching here, I was a substitute teacher for grades TK-12, taught third grade, and worked as an in-home therapist for children with special needs. In addition to my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, I am pursuing my Masters degree in TESOL-Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages. I am scheduled to graduate in fall of 2022! Teaching Language, specifically phonics, is my career passion. I am a firm believer in incorporating social emotional learning, mindfulness, and a growth mindset in the classroom. A critical part of my daily routine with your child in the classroom is to check in with how they are feeling. I am here to support you and your child on their educational journey, so please feel free to contact me anytime you need. In my spare time, I enjoy staying busy and doing things to better myself. I love traveling, eating, hiking, exercising, kickboxing, reading, writing, exploring, getting out of my comfort zone, trying new things, listening to music, crafts, cooking, baking, and spending time with my loved ones (including my beloved cat Luna). I look forward to getting to know you and your child!
